A very good introduction

Written by a leading Dutch museum director, this is the best introduction to the history of Dutch painting up to the XXth century. It follows a strict chronological pattern and is accompanied by many illustrations (mostly in black and white)which help the reader in his discovery of the great masters (Hals, Rembrandt, Vermeer) as well as more minor figures of the 18th and 19th century.
